Looking decent after TLC.

The streamlined tender when finished should be just the job for Wolf.

Your efforts have been rewarded with another outstanding result!

Really it cannot be too large a step now to whole loco bodies!

Surely anything that the mainstream manufacturers refuse to offer as spares is fair game?

Looks very good. I'm not in the need for a tender top at the mo, but I know where to get one - cheers...

Good morning all, now the storm seems to have subsided after waking me at 5am
It looks good Atlantic, and we look forward to production of examples not covered by RTR manufacturers.

You'd think that. I'm still trying to convince him to use a certain V2 assembly as a master....

Ah, but is it inflatable?

Actually, if you feel kind enough to send that boiler assembly I'm about ready to have a look at that idea more closely. Whilst I can't promise exactly how / when any plans might take shape, I'm certainly happy to send the boiler back to after appraisal if you are keen for me to evaluate it but would then like it back too.

I hope Graham is not digging a hole for himself here, but I for one would welcome an accurate V2.

You know, you can guarantee that as soon as Graeme has developed a new V2 body, that Bachmann will have announced a retool!

It's called sods law of modelling!

Continuing the break from those nasty Thompsons with a spot of further pre-war LNER modelling, and for a bit of fun at the same time, here's a mystery for interested parties to ponder.
(Incidentally, I must ask the three forum contributors who have already hade inside info on this one to remain tight-lipped for the present)...

Regarding the image below, what is depicted and what would be the origins. OO gauge, mainly plastic:

Thanks go to Rob Pulham & Jonathan Weallans for the inspiration.
